The University of Cincinnati attracts people from all parts of the country. Many come to live here on campus, or take an apartment nearby. But the majority of UC students commute to campus every day. No one knows the struggle of parking at UC like the commuters, who may leave home hours before class begins just to ensure themselves a park- ing place. With the constant construction and expansion going on, even those few places may become more scarce than they are now. In the past few years, we have already seen the demise of the Old Licldhousc Lot and parts of other lots that are being taken away by the new buildings, though there is the new Lindner parking garage under construction. Once commuters arrive on campus they usually cannot go home between classes, and so have developed some commuter “hang-outs. Many will spent their extra time studying or having a little snack at one of the many fine eating establish- ments in TUC. Commuters may at times feel somewhat out of the campus scene. However, many find that getting involved in some cam- pus organizations, such as the Commuters Association, helps them to feel more a part of UC. HENRY KMIECIAk HENRY KMILCIAk COMMUTERS 23

I DORMS 25 - Free at last! Or so you thought Don’t forget to take your key or you won’t be allowed back in. You have an instant so- cial life! You can only eat dinner from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., no sooner, no later, but pizza binges every other day make up for it. And who ever said anything about fire drills at 2 a.m.? Ah, dorm life. It has its ups and downs. The excitement of meeting so many di- verse students, getting a chance to estab- lish and build on friendships, getting two mail deliveries on Friday, and those great parties that last until 6 a.m. These arc all ups.” But on the down side — who cooks that awful food anyway? And have you ever been stuck in one of those elevators, or been late to class because you couldn’t get on an elevator in the first place? There is GOSH. POSH. SLAM. DHA CHEC, the governments of five of the six respective dorms here on our campus. Resident advisors arc available to all stu- dents — to help and to advise. But most of all. the dorms provide a place that you can call home. ] |
